浙江省杭州市七县（市、区）2018-2019学年高二上学期期末检测英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Scott Halley was a farmer...until a year ago. But the farm kept losing money. “You look at the numbers at the end of the pencil.” said Mr. Halley, 44, “and you realize it’s time to try something different.”With a heavy heart but a clear head, Mr. Halley became one of the thousands of American farmers who sell their land each year. What surprised Mr. Halley and others is that the move to the city was so easy. The farmers are finding jobs and their families are enjoying the city way of life.Mr. Halley found a good job working as a scientist at North Dakota State University. His salary is now twice what it was when he was a farmer.But even for those farmers who find good jobs, there is a price to pay in leaving farming.“It’s not just about making money but about the other rewards that farming can bring...working land your parent’s parents worked, spending your days in nature, caring for animals,” said Dr Michael Rosmann, a farmer and psychologist who helps farmers. “For most of them, that pain lasts for the rest of their lives. To make the decision to quit farming, to do what’s best for the family, takes an awful lot of courage.” Mr. Halley feels the pull of the land every day. Once a week, he drives eight hours to work a small piece of his old farm.It was hard to leave, but Mr. Halley knows he did the right thing. For most families that leave the land, salary goes up and the stress from having little money goes down. Both parents and children are happier.Halley’s children love living in the city.“The kids don’t want to go back now,” said Mr. Halley. “The telephone never stops ringing.”Megan Halley, 13, spoke with excitement about her new school. She especially likes art and computer technology. “Back on the farm,” she said. “the old phone system took five minutes or more just to dail up the Internet.”“It’s cool here,” said Megan. “She loves going to the nearby mall to shop for new clothes and get the latest CDs of her favorite group.” The closest store to the Halley’s farm was a10-mile drive.Before moving to the city, Megan worried about getting along with city kids.“The boys here aren’t any different than back in the country,” she said, “There’s just a lot more of them.”1．Why Mr. Halley decide to quit farming one year ago?A．He didn’t like farming any longer.B．He found a more satisfactory job in the city.C．He can hardly make money to support his family.D．It is not so convenient to live on the farm.2．Why does Mr. Halley drive back to his old farm once a week？A．To keep his connection to the land.B．To appreciate the beautiful scenery. C．To do a part-time job to earn more money.D．To relax himself from work. 3．According to Megan, what words can be used to describe the life in the country? A．Comfortable and peaceful.B．Inconvenient and boring.C．Easy and worthwhile.D．Busy and meaningful.US food author M.F. K. Fisher once wrote about humans, “First we eat, then we do everything else.”This is why each year we celebrate World Food Day, which falls on Oct. 16. But despite the importance of food around the world, food cultures often differ greatly from country to country. For example, things like chicken feet, duck heads, and pig brains are commonly eaten in Asia. If you asked most Westerners to try one of these things, though, the very thought would probably be enough to make them give up meat altogether.At the same time, however, the majority of people in Western nations regard themselves as meat eaters. So, what could be the reason behind this double standard?There are a number of possible answers to that question, yet one major reason could lie in recent cultural changes. During the mid-20th century and the years following it, eating most parts of an animal was common in many Western countries such as the UK—perhaps owing to rationing(定量配给) as a result of World War(1939-1945).But later, during the 1960s and 70s, following the introduction of highways in the US and the UK, the popularity of supermarkets in those countries increased, wrote Francesco Burnett, author of Cultural History of Meat: 1900-The Present.Thanks to the popularity and convenience of supermarkets which tend not to sell animal parts such as the head or limbs(四肢), the public’s attitude of meat soon shifted. “The ‘animal’ gradually disappeared from meat, and people’s ignorance about what animal the meat they ate came from increased.” Burnett added.As a result, it’s believed that many Western cultures slowly began to view meat as simply a food product, rather than as something that came from an animal.However, this theory may go even further back if we look at the words the English language uses to describe meat. “We ‘de-animalize’ certain foods that we eat by giving them different names,” Hal Herzog, author of Why It’s So Hard To Think Straight About Animals, told online magazine Grist. “We don’t say it’s cooked pig; we say it’s pork. And we don’t say hamburger is made of cow; we say it’s made of beef.”So it seems that there’s not one simple answer to this question. When it comes to eating meat, however, perhaps we should simply just enjoy the taste.4．The main purpose of the first three paragraphs is to ________.A．introduce various food culturesB．stress Westerners’ love for foodC．show differences in Chinese and Western food culturesD．draw attention to Westerners ‘de-animalizing’ meat5．What changed people’s attitudes toward meat in the 1960s and 1970s?A．The words used to describe meat.B．The rise of supermarkets.C．The need for a healthier lifestyle.D．The introduction of highways. 6．What does the underlined word “ignorance” mean in Paragraph 6？A．Blindness.B．Fear.C．Misunderstanding.D．Challenging.What makes a human being? Is it our thoughts? Our emotions? Our behavior?All of these things make us who we are, but at the center of the matter is the genome(基因组) the genes inside our bodies that may determine everything from our hair color to our intelligence. But if we could change our genome, what would it mean to us?In an online video posted on Nov. 26, He Jiankui, a biological researcher from Southern University of Science and Technology in China, said that he had helped to make the world’s first genetically edited babies.These are twin girls, born in November, with genes edited in an attempt to help them resist possible future infection with the AIDS virus.He said that he chose to do this because HIV infections are a big problem in China. “I feel such a strong responsibility that it’s not just to make a first, but also to set an example,” He told the Associated Press(AP).The announcement has caused an international storm.Some believe that success will benefit the families of HIV patients. Given that HIV is “a major and growing public health threat,” attempted gene editing for HIV is “justifiable(无可非议的),” Harvard Medical School genetics professor George Church told AP.However, others think that since gene editing technology is still premature, it is unsafe to attempt it.“Gene editing itself is experimental and is still associated with unexpected mutations(突变), capable of causing genetic problems early and later in life, including the development of cancer.” Julian Savulescu, a specialist in ethics(伦理学) at the University of Oxford, told BBC News.Others fear that this could open the door to using gene editing technology to make designer babies. It might give the parents the options to choose everything from their baby’s eye color to intelligence.“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest ‘upgrades’(升级) for their children, leading to even greater inequality than we already live with,” Marcy Darnovsky, director of the San Francisco Center for Genetics, told BBC News.However, Merlin Crossley, a biologist at the University of New South Wales, Australia, believes that’s a long way off . According to him, many genes produce qualities like height and intelligence—not to mention environmental influences.And he believes the technology will be better controlled in the future.“It’s hard to get genies(妖怪) back into bottles... but I’m optimistic that this technology, which I think of as ‘genetic surgery’, could be regulated quite effectively in the future,” Crossley told BBC News.7．According to the passage, which of the four statements is correct?A．The twin girls with genes edited will not be infected with AIDS.B．He Jiankui found a way to cure people of AIDS.C．The genetically edited babies have aroused a heated debate.D．It makes no sense to edit genes.8．Who shares the same idea with Julian Savulescu?A．He Jiankui.B．George Church.C．Merlin Crossley.D．Marcy Darnovsky.9．What can we infer from the underlined sentence “that’s a long way off”?A．People will finally accept gene editing, but it takes time.B．In the future gene editing will surely benefit people.C．It will take a long time before gene editing succeeds.D．There is much research to do on gene editing.10．Which is the most suitable title for the passage？A．Gene Editing: A Trend for the FutureB．Is Gene Editing the Way we should Go？C．Can Gene Editing Free People of Future Diseases？D．Gene Editing: Genies out of Bottles二、七选五Finishing my high school life in Canada, I started classes at the University of Toronto at the beginning of September and soon I found that there are lots of differences between Canadian high schools and universities.____11____ Although high schools in Canada also need students to choose courses by themselves, most of the students have the same compulsory (必修的) classes, and the options (选择) are quite limited. For university students, almost everyone has different classes, as the classes one takes depend on one’s major. ____12____ There are hundreds of majors that students can choose from, and each major has at least three or four compulsory classes each year. Do the math and you’ll be surprised by how many options students have.Each class has a maximum student number, usually between 100 to 300.____13____The university will assign (分派) a certain time for students to select classes on the course-enrolling website. So everything depends on one’s luck and fortune.Even if a student doesn’t successfully enroll in the classes that he or she wants, they can still be on the waitlist. If someone drops a class, another student will automatically (自动地) be enrolled (注册). ____14____Usually, there are two parts to most classes, the lecture and the tutorial (辅导课). Lectures usually have more than 100 students, and the instructors are the professors. For tutorials, they’re always run by teacher assistants, usually master’s or PhD students. Tutorials contain at most 30 students, and that’s where quizzes and discussions take place.____15____ For instance, my philosophy professor asks us to finish one book every week, which is the hardest thing for me to do right now.A．Take my university for example.B．To me, the biggest difference is the course selection system.C．There is a saying that goes, “If you are at ease with yourself in the world, the world will be at ease with you.”D．The biggest challenge for a freshman in Canada is how to get on well with the teacher assistants.E．Since universities in Canada have a longer summer holiday, the semesters are quite short, which means the progress of the class is very fast.F．The limited number of students means that some students may not be enrolled in the classes that they want to get into.G．Therefore, the university suggests that everyone should have a plan B in case something goes wrong.三、完形填空In my younger years, my mother gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in myAfter chatting for only 20 minutes, our friendship took ____24____. We exchanged phone numbers and left ____25____ our separate bus journeys after breakfast. ____26____, afterwards, we reunited with each other again and again in different cities in the UK.Taeko is an elegant and friendly lady who always speaks to people in a ____27____ voice. Although there’s a huge age difference between us, we still ____28____ many interests. Taeko told me her husband was a ____29____ in American literature at the University of Tokyo. They met one another at a party in their 20s, with a mutual love for literature____30____ them together.But ____31____, her husband passed away 18 years ago, and Taeko has remained____32____ since then. She produces films, runs marathons, travels around the world and makes global friends. You can never tell ____33____ she will be tomorrow.Once, I asked her if she ever felt lonely, ____34____ she said she never did.____35____, she feels fulfilled. She’s been doing exactly what she likes to do: be happy. 16．A．Travel B．Read C．Study D．Relax 17．A．Because B．Since C．So D．Although 18．A．behavior B．habit C．routine D．experience 19．A．which B．when C．that D．where 20．A．boat B．train C．bus D．plane 21．A．rare B．common C．usual D．regular 22．A．gesture B．conversation C．occupation D．action 23．A．when B．before C．after D．while 24．A．root B．interest C．time D．care 25．A．apart B．off C．away D．for 26．A．Eventually B．Actually C．Interestingly D．Additionally 27．A．gentle B．loud C．clear D．low 28．A．follow B．have C．take D．share 29．A．driver B．doctor C．professor D．writer 30．A．bringing B．finding C．joining D．meeting 31．A．unbelievably B．unfortunately C．surprisingly D．unexpectedly 32．A．lonely B．positive C．single D．optimistic 33．A．who B．when C．what D．where 34．A．but B．and C．or D．yet35．A．Instead B．However C．Besides D．Therefore四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面材料, 在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

A“Mom, I’m going to take my travel journal to school, okay? I want to show my teacher. ” The summer holiday is one of the main topics of conversation at the beginning of each school year. Friends and teachers want to know all about the fun. What better way to recount the experience than show them with a travel journal? Travel journals are as individual as your child, but with the following tips, you can make one too.Start with the bookA good journal is big enough to allow room for drawings, writing, photos, and souvenirs. If it’s too small, nothing will fit. My family finds artist sketchbooks to be the best because the paper is heavier and a good quality to draw on. They also hold up well when souvenirs such as postcards or ticket stubs are pasted in.Educational additionsLoad a simple map of your route and paste it in the book. If you’re traveling through several states or provinces, create a section in the book for each leg of your journey. Use a brightly colored marker to plot your route and stickers to show important points along the way. You may also wish to include coloring pages of state flags and animals, along with interesting trivia about your family travel destination.A picture says a thousand wordsYou may be surprised how judicial(公正) kids become when given a disposable camera and permission to take photos of whatever is important to them. Develop the photosen route, and you have an instant quiet time activity. Avoid disappointment; take a back up photo on you camera as well.With a travel journal, the question, “What did you do this summer? ”takes on a whole new meaning. A drawing here, a quote there, and a few pictures quickly add up to a wonderful book full of memories that can be shared with friends and family for many years to come. After all, isn’t that what family vacations are for?21. The first paragraph serves as _________.A. a descriptionB. a suggestionC. an introductionD. a summary22. Why does the author’s family like artist sketchbooks the best?A. They hold many drawings.B. They are heavy and large enough.C. They can be kept as good souvenirs.D. Their paper is suitable for drawing.23. What does the passage mainly tell us?A. How to make a travel journal.B. Making a summer holiday fun.C. Advantages of keeping a travel journal.D. The real meaning of a family vacation.BUp until about 3 years ago, I never really questioned my identity but now I amf a r m o r e a w a r e o f i t. Sometimes I’ll say really crazy things like “I wonder what I’d look like with pale yellow hair”, and my father only smiles. I guess growing up with Western parents and living in a fairly Western society have made me feel rather “Western”. However, my mother thought that it was still important for me to stay connected to my “roots”.Our family would go on various trips to China, sightseeing and learning more about the culture. I would attend Saturday Chinese (language) school and whenever my school had a culture or an international day, my mother would encourage me to dress up in Chinese dress or bring Chinese food. The key word: encouraged. Not forced.Understanding my native culture and tradition and knowing other children just like me were obviously important ideas my mother valued when it came to bringing up her two Chinese daughters. I have never really had any identity issues; however, Ifind that now I have become less interested in maintaining a strong link to my Chinese tradition. This is because I started traveling and seeing more of the world, and grew up in a very Western lifestyle.What do I mean by this? I have started to become more aware of their customs. But do not think I did not appreciated the opportunity I had to learn about my culture;I will never truly stop being Chinese, but as I grow older, I want to declare myselfa full-and-through Australian.I am on a Chinese Adoption Facebook group and I decide to ask for some ideas on how they feel about being open to learning their native culture.24. According to the text, the writer’s roots are in _________.A. ChinaB. AustraliaC. AmericaD. France25. The writer stays connected to China by the following ways EXCEPT _______.A. traveling to ChinaB. cooking Chinese foodC. attending Chinese language schoolD. learning Chinese culture26. What can we infer about the writer and her family?A. The writer is a nice girl with beautiful golden hair.B. The writer wants to be strongly connected with Chinese tradition.C. The writer prefers the Western lifestyle to the Chinese one.D. The writer’s present parents both come from Australia.27. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?A. The experience the writer’s family had while traveling in China.B. The writer’s feeling about her special identity.C. The effect the Western lifestyle has on the writer.D. Others’ responses the writer received to her question.CCommon-cold SenseYou can’t beat it, but you don’t have to join it. Maybe it got the name “common cold” because it’s more common in winter. The fact is, though, being cold doesn’t have anything to do with getting one. Colds are caused by the spread of rhinoviruses(鼻病毒), and, at least so far, medical science is better at telling you how to avoid getting one than how to get rid of one.Children are the most common way cold viruses are spread to adults, because they have more colds than adults—an average of about eight per year. Why do kids seem so much more easily to get colds than their parents? Simple. They haven’t had the opportunity to become immune to many cold viruses.There are more than 150 different cold viruses, and you never have the same one twice. Being infected by one makes you immune(免疫的)to it –but only it.Colds are usually spread by direct contact, not sneezing or coughing. From another person’s hand to your hand and then to your nose or eyes is the most common route. The highest concentration of cold viruses anywhere is found under the thumbnails(拇指甲)of a boy, although the viruses can survive for hours on skin or other smooth surfaces.Hygiene is your best defense. Wash your hands frequently, preferably with a disinfectant(消毒剂) soap, especially when children in your household have colds.But even careful hygiene won’t ward off every cold. So, what works when a coughing, sneezing, runny nose strikes?The old prescription(处方)of two aspirins, lots of water, and bed rest is a good place to start. But you’ll also find some of the folk remedies worth trying. Hot mixtures of sugar (or honey), lemon, and water have real benefits.28. According to the essay, you may have a cold because ____________.A. the weather is too coldB.another person’s coughing passes the cold to youC.the spread of rhinoviruses gets people infectedD.you wash your hands too often29. Children have more colds because _________.A. they are not immune to many cold viruses yetB.they are usually infected about eight times each yearC.they never wash their hands so that their thumbnails are dirtyD.they don’t like eating lemon30. When you are having a cold, ___________.A. it is always the same kind of cold that you had last timeB.it is certainly not the same kind of cold that you had last timeC.it may be the same kind of cold that you had last timeD.it is probably not the same kind of cold that you had last time31. When one is having a cold, he may often have all the following symptoms EXCEPT ________.A.coughingB. having a sore throatC. having a stomachacheD. havinga runny noseDThere is an old Chinese proverb that states “One generation plants the trees; another gets the shade”, and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters. The relationship between a mother and daughter is sometimes confusing. If close, the relationship can be similar to friendship. However, the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship. These characteristics include the hierarchy(等级) and unconditional love, which preclude mothers and daughters from being best friends.Marina, 27 years old, says, “I love spending time with my mom, but I wouldn’t consider her my best friend. Best friends don’t pay for your wedding. Best friends don’t remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friend don’t tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you.” This doesn’t mean that the mother and daughter relationship can’t be very close and satisfying.While some adult relationships are still troubled, many find them to be extremely rewarding. This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common which increases the likelihood of shared companionship. Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being homemakers, responsible for maintaining andpassing on family values and traditions. Today contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of the workforce and technology, which may bring them even closer together.Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse, the mother and daughter relationship is permanent, even if they aren’t speaking for some unfortunate reason. The mother and child relationship is still closer than any other. There is not an equal relationship. Daughters should not feel responsible for their mother’s emotional well-being. It isn’t that they don’t care deeply about their mothers. It’s just that they shouldn’t be burdened with their mother’s well-being.The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other. Mothers never stop being mothers, which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness. Mother always “trumps” friends.32. The underlined word “preclude” in Paragraph 1 probably mean “___________”.A. preventB. differC. benefitD. change33. What do we know from the passage?A. The mother and daughter relationship can be replaced by a best friend.B. A mother’s love brings her and her daughter a close friendship.C. Marina has a troubled relationship with her mother.D. The mother and daughter relationship goes beyond best friends’ friendship.34. The author proves his statements mainly by __________.A. listing dataB. giving explanationsC. quoting sayingsD. making examples35. What is the best title for the passage?A. How to be a good mother and daughterB. Can a mother be a daughter’s best friend?C. A friend in need is a friend indeedD. Who is a mother’s best friend?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2018-2019学年高二上学期期末教学质量监测英语试卷
2018-2019学年高二上学期期末教学质量监测英语试卷2018-2019学年高二上学期期末教学质量监测英语试卷一、阅读理解I first began experiencing anxiety and depression at the age of 14, after being bullied (欺凌) at school for years. While at first anxiety and depression would come and go, it eventually became a constant part of my life.I was so eager to find the solution to overcoming my anxiety and depression that I tried everything from when I was in college to graduate school: mood-changing medication, special teas, yoga, anything I read about in books, and advice given by doctors. Despite this, I still felt I hadn’t even come close to managing the problem.But one afternoon, my eyes fell upon an article in a magazine I was reading that talked about how dogs were able to help people with anxiety and depression. The very next day, I decided to get a dog—a corgi. When I brought my little corgi, Buddy, home. I didn’t realize how much he would change my life. It didn’t happen right away, howe ver.Once the “puppy excitement” went away, my anxiety and depression came back as usual. One morning, I woke up with those familiar feeling again. I didn’t want to get out of bed. I turned to pull the covers back over my head and give up. That’s when I saw Buddy.Buddy started jumping all over me, licking my face, letting me know that it was time to go outside. It was as if he were saying, “There’s no time to be sad; the world is amazing!” And for the first time in my life, my life was changing. I really was a new person. This was my new beginning.It’s been more than a year since that day, and I’ve never spent another morning unable to get out of bed. I’ve not cried myself to sleep or spent my days stuck with fear and regret. Sure, I still have days when I feel sad or anxious. But with Buddy, my best friend, by my side, I’ve finally learned how to manage these feelings and emotions.1.According to the first two paragraphs, the author ________.A. has been a school bully for yearsB. suffered from depression since collegeC. tried many ways to fight depression but nothing workedD. felt less depressed after taking medication and doing yoga2.How did the author know having a dog might help with her depressionA. a doctor put it forward to her.B. She read it in an article by chance.C. She heard it from some other depression sufferers.D. She found out herself after spending some time with a corgi.3.How does the author feel in the last paragraphA. hopefulB. AnxiousC. ConfusedD. DoubtfulBritish scientists have discovered the willow trees planted at an angle could increase sugars for biofuel production.Willow is a fast-growing species. It is already used to produce fuels for the renewable heating and power market. In future it could also help to produce biofuel to power vehicles. It has been known that when willows growing in the wild are blown sideways, they tend to produce more sugars. But for a while it has not been known why this happens.Researchers at Imperial College London, led by Dr NicholasBrereton and Dr Michael Ray of the Department of Life Sciences, have now solved the mystery. When the tree is blown sideways, its genes (基因) produce large numbers of sugar molecules (分子) to straighten the tree upwards.“This is an important breakthrough. Our stud y now shows that natural genetic changes are related to these differences. And this could well be the key to unlocking the future for green energy from willow,” said Dr Brereton.The research was carried out under lab conditions. The willows were grown at an angle of 45 degrees. They were compared to willows which grow naturally straight upwards. The team then looked for the same effect among the willows growing on the Isle of Orkney where strong winds cause the trees to bend at extreme angles. They discovered that the Orkney trees produce five times the amount of sugars found in willows grown in sheltered conditions.Willow is widely planted across the UK. The results show that biofuel crops such as willows could be grown in climatically changeable conditions where chances of growing food crops are limited.The study is published in Biotechnology for Biofuels.1.What may happen when willows are planted in strong windsA. They stop growing.B. Few sugars are produced.C. They try to grow sideways.D. Changes in genes take place.2.The Orkney willows ________.A. are unusually rich in sugarsB. grow naturally straight upwardC. look taller than ordinary willowsD. are stronger than those growing in labs3.Farmers living in changeable climate _______.A. use biofuel for heating and powerB. are encouraged to grow biofuel cropsC. can plant different kinds of food cropsD. should make their willows grow straight4.Where does this passage most probably come fromA. A personal diary.B. A travel magazine.C. A scientific journal.D. A newspaper advertisement.Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on We Chat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name—phubbers (低头族).Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities bury themselves in their phones. a doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfe in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone, a chain of similar events eventually leads to a series of destruction.Although the ending sounds overstated, the damage phubbing can bring is real.Your health is the first to bear the consequence (后果) of it. “Constantly bending your head to check your ce ll phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying. “The neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.1.For what purpose does the author give the example of a cartoon in Para. 2A. To advertise the cartoon made by students.B. To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.C. To show the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.D. To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.2.Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may takeA. His social skills could be affected.B. He will cause a lot of destruction.C. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.D. He might get separated from his friends and family.3.Which of the following may be the author’s attitude towards phubbingA. Opposed.B. Supportive.C. Objective.D. Optimistic.4.What will the passage most probably talk about nextA. Consequences of phubbing.B. People addicted to phubbing.C. Advice on how to use a cell phone.D. Measures to reduce the risks of phubbingThanks to exchange programmes an increasing number ofyoung students are following educational courses in foreign countries. The Erasmus Programme, which started in 1987, is a European Union student exchange programme. It provides opportunities for young people from Europe to study in a foreign country for shot An intercontinental version of the programme, known as Erasmus Mundus, has existed since 20xx, providing non-Europeans the opportunity to study in Europe.Student’s name: Paul DupontErasmus trip: Lyon-AberdeenTime: in 20xxCool!

Most people manage to get through these moments when they need to. 1. It’s probably more than shyness. It may build up into a powerful fear. As a result, people feel uncomfortable participating in everyday social activities. This is called social phobia (also called social anxiety).2. It prevents them from chatting with friends in the lunch time, joining an after-school club, or going to a party. Sometimes, they even feel too nervous to ask a question in class or go to a teacher for help. Social phobia not only prevents people from trying new things. It also prevents them from making the normal, everyday mistakes that may help people improve their skills even furtherIt is really sad, isn’t it But the good news is that people with social phobia can learn to manage fear, develop confidence and communicating skills and stop avoiding things that make them nervous. Of course it’s not always easy. Dealing with social phobia takes the willingness patience and courage to face fears.3.Therapists (治疗师) can help people create a plan for facing social fears and build the skills and confidence to overcome it. And family or friends are especially important for them. 4.They can encourage them to pick a small goal to aim for, remind them to go for it, and be there when they might feel discouraged.Little by little, someone who decides to deal with extreme shyness can learn to be more comfortable. 5. As shyness and fears begin to melt, confidence and positive feelings build. Pretty soon, the person is thinking less about what might feel uncomfortable and more about what might be fun.A. Friends can overcome their fears easily.B. But for someone, the anxiety can be extreme.C. They are not able to make eye contact with classmates.D. Social phobia makes people lonely or disappointed over missed opportunities.E. Each small step forward helps build enough confidence to take the next small step.F. It also takes an action to go forward rather than back away when feeling shy.G. The support from those key people helps them gather the courage to try something new.三、完形填空Two brothers, Ruby and Harry lived in Spain.

Yasmin Eisenhauer, a teacher at Lowell School, told her class last fall that they were going to make the trees on their school grounds talk．"What? How are we going to do this? " thought Lusya Mae Engen, a student in Yasmin's class．But the kids soon learned what their teacher meant．"We're trying to get people to talk with the trees through technology, " said Lusya．First, the students picked their own trees． Then, each student had to learn all about his or her tree, like how tall it was, how the tree's leaves felt and looked, and during what season it flowered． To get all the information, they used the Internet and some math．Next, the students wrote what they had learned about their trees and they recorded their own voices talking as if they were their trees, telling people all about who they were． That was the technology part．"It was really cool to connect technology with nature, " said Azur Walla, another student in the class．The kids named their trees things like Dog 'N' Woods, Harlo Tree or Freddy． They also added their own creative voices to the project, and asked people looking at the trees to sing a song in their shade or give the trees a hug．"My name is Charlotte． I was given this name by my friend Brooke． She is really nice and tries to visit me every day． What is your name?

Studying music in high school is good for young people． Unfortunately, students do not think of music studies as a useful subject in high schools． They always learn other subjects or sleep in music classes． However, educators have seen the great difference which studying music has made in the minds and lives of their students．Some studies find that children who study music have better grades． According to Robert A Cutietta and Harvey Mercadoocasio, authors of "Raising Musical Kids: A Guide for Parents", "Students who study music in high school, as a group, have higher scores than those not in bands．"Studying music may not immediately lead to higher grades． It does, however, make students gain skills that can lead to success in tests．Through listening to music, one can enjoy the joy which music may bring into his life． Performing as a musician increases this joy, while developing self﹣confidence． According to Cutietta and Mercadocasio, "Being involved in music in a meaningful （and knowledgeable） way will add greatly to the quality of your child's life． It increases brain power along the way．"Studying music as a high school student allows teenagers to develop many healthy and productive habits that will carry over into their adult lives, giving them a push towards a successful life． In addition to these habits, studying music really changes the brain in some way, as well．"Kids who receive music training often make great progress in math studies．" According to Newsweek． It quotes psychologist Martin Gardiner: "they just ________ in math． This can't be explained by attention alone． There is something specific between music and math．"（1）As for high school students， the author holds that________．A they understand music studies in high schoolB they should learn other subjects instead of musicC they should take music studies seriouslyD they can choose to study music as they like．（2）Studying music in high school________．A immediately leads to high gradesB helps students improve in someskills C changes students' lives in high school D provides more joy than listening to music．（3）According to Para.4， listening to music can________．A bring one some joyB develop self﹣confidenceC improve parents' lifequality D increase adults' brain power．（4）Why is studying music good for young people's future？________A Because it lets young people get good grades．B Because it improves young people's life quality．C Because it makes young people more confident．D Because it makes young people develop good habits．．（5）What do the underlined words "shoot ahead" in the last paragraph mean？________A Practice a lot．B Show interest．C Move quickly．D Improve greatly．第一节：阅读表达（满分10分）阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题．20.

Eating is best when it’s a social activity. Think of the meal a family enjoys in the evening when everyone’s together after work or school, or the big get-togethers over food at Spring Festival. But now, in the age of the Internet and social media, anyone with an Internet connection can enjoy a social eating event. Mukbang-a South Korean phrase meaning “eating broadcast”-is an unusual food fanaticism that’s sweeping the country. This is a meal where only one person gets to eat, while many viewers watch live shows of hosts eating large quantities of food. They leave comments on the dishes the host is taking, and the host responds to them live. So why have people taken to this unusual new food trend(趋势)? Jeff Yang, an Asian-American cultural critic, thinks that it’s down to “the loneliness of unmarried or uncoupled South Koreans”. He believes that eating on your own can be hard in a country like South Korea, where social eating is such a long tradition. However, Mukbang gives people the feeling that they are part of something larger, it seems. Millions of people have trouble with food. Either they eat too much of it, or too little. Some say that the popularity of Mukbang helps people with these disorders. Those who always eat too much and put on weight can watch Mukbang live shows to satisfy their appetite (胃口). And those who don’t eat enough can build their appetite by watching delicious food being eaten. Even though Mukbang is a South Korean phenomenon, it’s also taken off in the US. But unlike South Koreans who sit down to enjoy noodles and kimchi (泡菜), Americans enjoy their own native dishes. This means that viewers of US Mukbang live shows will see locals stuffing themselves with hamburgers, fries and ice cream.

Among them: Density (45)_____: licenses to sell alcohol aren't handed out (46)_____ to all comers but are allotted （分配）based on the number of places in an area that already sell alcohol. These make alcohol less easy to get and reduce the number of psychological cues to drink.Similarly, the researchers say, being presented with junk food (47)_______ our desire to eat it. So why not limit the density of food outlets, (48)______ ones that sell food rich in empty calories?

At supermarkets, food companies pay to have their wares in places where they’re easily seen. One could remove junk food to the back of the store and ban them from the shelves at checkout lines. The other measures include restricting portion sizes, taxing and prohibiting (50)_____ price deals for junk foods, and placing warning labels on the products.III.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Behind most of the bad things we do to our bodies as adults, eating more than we should is the idea we carry with us from childhood. On the one hand, we assume that we are indestructible. On the other, we think that any damage we impose on ourselves can be undone when we finally clean up our act.If the evidence for how wrong the first idea is isn't apparent when you stand naked in front of the mirror, just wait. But what if you eat right and drop all your bad habits? Is there still time to repair the damage?To a surprising degree, the answer is yes. Over the past five years, scientists have accumulated a wealth of data about what happens when aging people with bad habits decide to turn their lives around. The heartening conclusion: the body has an amazing ability to heal itself, provided the damage is not too great.The effects of some bad habits--smoking, in particular--can haunt you for decades. But the damage from other habits can be largely healed. “Any time you improve your behavior and make lifestyle changes, they make a difference from that point on”, says Dr. Jeffrey Koplan. “Maybe not right away. It's like slamming on the brakes. You do need a certain distance”.But the distance can be remarkably short. Consider the recent announcements from the front lines of medical research:--A study concluded that women who consume as little as two servings of fish a week cut their risk of suffering a stroke to half that of women who eat less than one serving of fish a month.--The day you quit smoking, the carbon monoxide levels in your body drop dramatically. Within weeks, your blood becomes less sticky and your risk of dying from a heart attack starts to decline。

2018-2019学年北京一零一中高二（上）期末英语试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AI passed all the other courses that I took at my university，but I could have never passed botany．This was because all botany students had to spend several hours a week in a laboratory looking through a microscope at plant cells，and I could never once see a cell through a microscope．This used to make my professor angry．He would wander around the laboratory pleased with the progress all the students were making in drawing the structure of flower cells，until he came to me．I would just be standing there．"I can't see anything，"I would say．He would begin patiently enough，explaining how anybody can see through a microscope，but he would always end up angrily，claiming that I could see through a microscope but just pretended that I couldn't．"It takes away from the beauty of flowers anyway．"I used to tell him．"We are not concerned with beauty in this course，"he would say．"We are concerned with the structure of flowers．""Well，"I'd say．"I can't see anything．""Try it just once again，"he'd say，and I would put my eye to the microscope and see nothing at all，except now and again something unclear and milky．"You were supposed to see a clear，moving plant cells shaped like clocks．""I see what looks like a lot of milk．"I would tell him．This，he claimed，was the result of my not having adjusted the microscope properly，so he would readjust it for me，or rather，for himself．And I would look again and see milk．I failed to pass botany that year，and had to wait a year and try again，or I couldn't graduate．The next term the same professor was eager to explain cell-structure again to his classes．"Well，"he said to me，happily，"we're going to see cells this time，aren't we？""Yes，sir，"I said．Students to the right of me and to the left of me and in front of me were seeing cells；what's more，they were．Of course，I didn't see anything．So the professor and I tried with every adjustment of the microscope known to man．With only once did I see anything but blackness or the familiar milk，and that time I saw，to my pleasure and amazement，something like stars．These I hurriedly drew．The professor，noting my activity，came to me，a smile on his lips and his eyebrows high in hope．He looked at my cell drawing．"What's that？"he asked．"That's what I saw，"I said．"You didn't，you didn't，you didn't!"he screamed，losing control of himself immediately，and he bent over and looked into the microscope．He raised his head suddenly．"That's your eye!"he shouted．"You've adjusted the microscope so that it reflects!You've drawn your eye!"1.Why couldn't the writer see the flower cells through the microscope？______A.Because he had poor eyesight．B.Because the microscope didn't work properly．C.Because he was not able to adjust the microscope properly．D.Because he was just playing jokes on his professor by pretending not to have seen it．2.What does the writer mean by"his eyebrows high in hope"in the last paragraph？______A.His professor hoped he could perform his task with attention．B.His professor expected him to have seen the cells and drawn the picture of them．C.His professor wished him to learn how to draw pictures．D.His professor looked forward to seeing all his students finish their drawings．3.What is the thing like stars that the writer saw in the last paragraph？______A.His own eye．B.Real stars．C.Something unknown．k．4.In what writing style did the writer write the passage？______A.Realistic．B.Romantic．C.Serious．D.Humorous．【答案】【小题1】C【小题2】B【小题3】A【小题4】D【解析】1-4CBAD1．C．细节理解题．根据第一段的This，he claimed，was the result of my not having adjusted themicroscope properly他声称，这是我没有正确调整显微镜的结果，可知作者通过显微镜看不到花的细胞是因为因为他不能正确地调整显微镜，故选C．2．B．推理判断题．结合选项可知是教授的期望．作者因不能正确使用显微镜而考试不及格，教授自然希望作者能和其他学生一样，正确调节显微镜，能看到细胞并画出细胞的图片，故选B．3．A．细节理解题．根据最后一段的He raised his head suddenly．"That'syour eye!"he shouted．"You've adjusted the microscope so that itreflects他突然抬起头来，"那是你的眼睛！"他喊道，"你调整了显微镜这样反射了你的眼睛，可知作者看到的像星星的东西是他自己的眼睛，故选A．4．D．写作风格题．根据第一段的and I could never once see a cell through amicroscope．我通过显微镜却从来没有见过一个细胞以及整篇文章用词和作者语气可看出作者的"幽默诙谐"．故选D．本文讲述了作者通过了大学的所有其他课程，但可能从来没有通过植物学，这是因为所有的植物学学生都要花几个小时在一个实验室，通过显微镜观察植物细胞，但作者通过显微镜却从来没有见过一个细胞．这是为什么呢？本文是人物故事类阅读，考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力．做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择．在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．BBelow is a housing guide for students going to London．University accommodation（住所）officesMany university accommodation offices have their own list of registered landlords．Others also provide information on accommodation agencies and other housing organization．The advantage of using your university accommodation is that you can get support if you have a problem．The disadvantage is that they are unlikely to have enough registered landlords to house all their students．Property papers：Loot and RentingLoot is an important source of information about private housing forco-renters．The offers are from private landlords，agencies and individuals looking for other co-renters．They also have a website：www．loot．com．The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains．The disadvantag e is that there is no quality control over the offers．Renting is another useful paper．The offers in this paper are mainly from accommodation agencies．Their website is at www．renting．co．uk．Accommodation agenciesThe majority of rented accommodation in London is probably advertised through accommodation agencies．The advantage of using accommodation agencies is that you will have a large number of accommodations to choose from．A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the right accommodation．The disadvantage is that they will make a range of charges to potential renters．NoticeboardsAround the universities you will find a number of noticeboards where offers of accommodation will be posted．These will either be from landlords or from students．Some universities will also have online noticeboards where students can advertise to other students．Advertisements from students can be an excellent way to find accommodation．However，advertisements from landlords can be problematic．Word of mouthSome of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth．It might be that you can find out about good offers from final year students．However，don't suppose that just because you have found out about housing from a friend，it is necessarily going to be better than that found through any other source．FamilyFaced with the very high rents charged in London，some students and their parents will consider buying as an alternative．In some cases this might be a good choice．5.What is the advantage of using Loot？______A.It has more offers from accommodation agencies than Renting．B.It gives you personal information about other co-renters．C.Their website is designed mainly for students．D.There are some good bargains．6.A good agent can help you______．A.know more peopleB.find cheap accommodationC.get the right accommodation quicklyD.get free information about most accommodations7.The information passed on by word of mouth is important because______．A.it is better than that found through any other sourceB.it helps you find some of the best housing never advertisedC.the final year students always offer better informationD.the landlords have little valuable information【答案】【小题1】D【小题2】C【小题3】B【解析】55-57DCB55．D．细节理解题．根据第二部分第四句"The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains．"可知使用Loot的好处是提供一些租价低廉的房屋的信息．故选D．56．C．细节理解题．根据第三部分第三句"A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the right accommodation．"可知一个好的中介能够帮助你快速地找到合适的住宿的地方．故选C．57．B．细节理解题．根据第五部分第一句"Some of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth．"可知，口头传递的信息是非常重要的，因为它可以帮助你找到一些从来没有广告的最好的住房，故选B．本文叙述了去伦敦的学生选择住宿的指导建议．去伦敦的学生可以选择学校提供的住宿，有麻烦时可以提到帮助；亦可选择Loot来租住房子；还可以通过租房住宿中介，他们会给你提供一些可租住的房子；还可选择广告牌和听熟人口头介绍的房子．另外一些学生和他们的父母也可以在伦敦买房子来住．此题主要考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力．做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择．在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．CThe unquestioned role of a student is to learn as much as possible through whatever means it takes to acquire knowledge．Teachers and professors are human beings and are therefore not perfect．No one knows the correct answer to every question even when you limit the questions to a certain field of study．Having certain skepticism（质疑）about what they are being taught can help students to make the teachers even better by correcting mistakes and misinformation．Students certainly have a huge role in their own abilities to learn．Teachers should act more as guides along the way rather than try to force each student to learn．The best teachers in the world cannot teach an unmotivated student．If the teacher，for whatever reason，cannot motivate the student，then the student must somehow find a way to motivate himself or herself．One method of doing this is by becoming an active rather than a passive student．The more the student involves himself or herself in the act of studying，the better he or she can learn．One of the best ways to become more active is simply to ask the teacher or professor questions．Students who passively sit in a classroom and take everything that the teacher says for granted are not fully using their mental capacities to learn．Better education comes from teachers who are able to get their students to think about a subject rather than merely absorb a certain amount of information．Having a healthy skepticism can improve a student's ability to both think and absorb knowledge in a learning situation．Teachers are human beings and no one is one hundred percent right all of the time，even in a classroom situation．Perhaps a teacher would simply unconsciously say the wrong word or pass on some misinformation that the teacher truly believed was correct．A student's question could prevent an entire classroom from becoming confused or misinformed．There is of course a fine balance between a student having a healthy skepticism and just being a downright（完全的）skeptic．But with the proper attitude toward learning and a little skepticism，both the students and teachers can improve upon the learning process and maximize learning efficiency．8.Which of the following is the author's main argument？______A.Passive learning results from passive teaching in class．B.A healthy skepticism and proper attitude contribute to effective learning．C.A healthy skepticism fully depends on students'motivation and ability．D.A student's ability plays a huge role in the learning process．9.Being passive learners，the students______．e little of their mental ability while studyingB.simply ask their teachers questions without thinkingC.can hardly tell the right from the wrong in classD.seldom involve themselves completely in learning10.According to the passage，a good teacher should______．A.help the unmotivated students patientlyB.instruct students in the learning processC.make no mistakes in the teaching processD.answer all the questions raised by students11.The author will most probably agree that______．A.keeping skepticism to a certain degree is importantB.having a good attitude can ensure the learning processC.taking everything for granted makes a student learn nothingD.a teacher's ability can be improved by encouraging doubt【答案】【小题1】B【小题2】D【小题3】B【小题4】A【解析】1．B．主旨大意题．根据文章内容，尤其是第一段Having certain skepticism（质疑）about what they are being taught can help students to make the teachers even better by co rrecting mistakes and misinformation．可知，作者的主要论点是健康的怀疑态度和正确的态度有助于有效的学习．故选B．2．D．细节理解题．根据第三段One method of doing this is by becoming an active rather than a passive student．The more th e student involves himself or herself in the act of studying，the better he or she can learn．可知，作为被动学习者，学生很少将自己完全融入学习．故选D．3．B．推理判断题．根据第四段Better education comes from teachers who are able to get their students to think about a subje ct rather than merely absorb a certain amount of information可以推测出，一个好的老师应该指导学生在学习过程中．故选B．4．A．细节理解题．根据最后一段But with the proper attitude toward learning and a little skepticism，both the students and tea chers can improve upon the learning process and maximize learning efficiency．可知，作者很可能会同意在一定程度上保持怀疑态度很重要．故选A．本文是一篇社会文化类阅读，属于议论文，主要讲述了健康的怀疑态度和正确的态度有助于有效的学习．在做这类短文阅读时，应先立足于通读短文，了解短文大意，然后带着问题再读短文，阅读时应观察全文的结构安排，理解文章浓墨重笔写的"重心"，考虑文章组织材料及支撑性细节是服务于什么的，分析故事的发展结局都是围绕什么中心大意来安排的．DBenefits of Cross-Country Skiing Cross-country skiing can be enjoyed by a wide range of students，from the youngest kindergartners to those secondary students．It is really a fun activity，providing students a gentle workout outside in winter．While having fun，students can gain physical and mental benefits．The physical benefits of cross-country skiing are well known．If we look at Olympic cross-country skiers，we can see the positive effects on the body that result from training for cross-country skiing．The average best female cross-country skier carries11percent bodyfat，and best male skiers carry5percent．These percentages are well below the average for people who are considered to be athletic--17percent for females and10percent for males．The high number of calories burned while skiing helps to keep skiers slim in a healthy and attractive way．Cross-country skiing is also an efficient way to exercise a large number of muscles at once．Because skiers use ski poles as a means of propulsion，the force that drives skiers forward，the upper body gets much more of workout．Of course，the leg muscles also do their fair share．People who use cross-country skiing as a workout over several weeks will discover that the muscles of their entire body increase in strength．Cross-country skiing on a regular basis has a tremendous effect on a person's cardiovascular system．In addition to gaining strength in the muscles of the upper and lower body，people who use cross-country skiing as a workout method over several weeks will also discover that their heart is stronger．A strong heart pumps more efficiently，sending out more blood to the muscles with each contraction（收缩）．Through weeks of skiing，people often discover that their resting heart rate has decreased．Highly trained Olympic cross-country skiers have resting heart rates between28and40beats per minute．Compare that to the resting heart rate of the average person，which is60to80beats per minute!The benefits of cross-country skiing extend beyond overall general health．A lot of evidence exists indicating that regular physical activity increases the release of mood-lifting endorphins（内啡肽）in the body．After one of the energetic and fun skiing lessons，students will be smiling and laughing；they will be relaxed and in a better mood than when they started class．Students will leave class with a sense of accomplishment，knowing that they have developed new skills in a fun activity．Cross-country skiing is a great way to work the total body．Now more and more students are taking part in this exercise outside during the winter months．They are enjoying it and benefiting from it!12.The underlined word"workout"means______．A.mannerB.opportunityC.applicationD.exercise13.According to the passage，we can learn that cross-country skiing______．A.can balance out the skiers'increased caloriesB.requires the use of most muscle groupsC.can increase the athletes'resting heart ratesD.offers students a unique way to keep fit14.How does the author prove the benefits of skiing in the fifth paragraph？______A.By giving explanations．B.By giving data．C.By making comparisons．D.By giving comments．15.Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage？______A.B.C.D.CP：Central point P：Point Sp：Sub-point（次要点）C：Conclusion【答案】【小题1】D【小题2】B【小题3】A【小题4】C【解析】1．D．词义猜测题．根据It is really a fun activity，providing students a gentle workout outside in winter．While havi ng fun，students can gain physical and mental benefits可知越野滑雪运动是一项适应不同年龄学生的冬季运动，可以让他们身心收益，可知workout此处意为"运动，锻炼"，故答案为D．2．B．推理判断题．根据People who use cross-country skiing as a workout over several weeks will discover that th e muscles of their entire body increase in strength可知越野滑雪也是锻炼肌肉的一个有效方法，使用越野滑雪作为锻炼方式的人几个星期之后就会发现他们的整个身体肌肉增加强度，故答案为B．3．A．写作手法题．根据全文可知，本文介绍了越野滑雪的好处，分别从越野滑雪对减肥，肌肉锻炼，心血管系统及情绪方面进行解释，告诉我们该项运动对运动员是身心都有好处，故答案为A．4．C．篇章结构题．文章第一段首先介绍了越野滑雪这项运动，这是Central point；然后从对身体和心理两个大的方面解释了该项运动的好处，对身体的好处是在二、三、四段进行阐述的；对心理的好处是在第五段阐述；最后一段是得出结论，及该项运动对身心均有好处，故答案为C．文章介绍了越野滑雪运动，分别从越野滑雪对减肥，肌肉锻炼，心血管系统及情绪方面进行解释，告诉我们该项运动对运动员是身心都有好处．在做这类短文阅读时，应先立足于通读短文，了解短文大意，然后带着问题再读短文，阅读时应观察全文的结构安排，理解文章浓墨重笔写的"重心"，考虑文章组织材料及支撑性细节是服务于什么的，分析故事的发展结局都是围绕什么中心大意来安排的．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）For over one hundred and fifty years，Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans．(1)Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today，Strauss'invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world．Levi Strauss was born in Germany in1829．(2)He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in1847．Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in1853，Strauss worked in his brother's dry goods business．This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention．After the gold rush of1949，Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes．Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals．Instead，he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners．At first，he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth．(3)When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining，he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners．These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more．In1873，Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets（铆钉）．This made the pants last a long time．Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea，he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent．(4)．By the time Strauss died in1902，he had made a great contribution to American fashion．(5) The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss'company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world．A．He did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since．B．Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable．C．As a young boy，he moved with his family to the United States．D．However，he did not get much business for those products．E．Since they were invented by Levi Strauss，they have become a symbol of American consumer culture．F．He also made a great contribution to America's clothing industry．G．As the business grew，Strauss got much money from it．16.

The promoters of products say they ___3___ shape the legs, slim the face and smooth wrinkles. Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoters. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, ___4___ is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. If the product is a drug, FDA(Food and Drug Administration) can require proof that it is safe and effective before it ___5___(put) on the market. But if the product is a device, FDA has no authority ___6___ (require) premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. ___7___ a product already on the market is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action, including seizure(查封) of the product.One notable case a few years ago ___8___(involve) an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, ___9___ had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Red grouper(石斑鱼) are known for a few key characteristics — their color, which can___11___from pink to bright orange; their tastiness, whether they’re grilled or fried; and their predation (掠夺行为) method, in which they ___12___ sea creatures and swallow them whole.But their least-known characteristic might be the most valuable of all: They operate as underwater architects, ___13___ the seascape for numerous other forms of underwater life. Thatsurprising discovery is ___14___ scientists and policymakers to readjust their approach to preserving the ocean’s natural order — and heightening tensions with those who fish for a living or as a hobby.A team of scientists, led by Florida State University’s Felicia Coleman, recently found that the red grouper off Florida’s east and west coasts have created entire ocean ___15___by digging large holes in the sea’s sandy bottom. In the same way beavers ___16___dams, red grouper dig and maintain distinct holes whose rocky surfaces provide a place for coral, sponges and other marine life to gather.This new understanding is changing the way federal and state authorities manage ocean habitats and is creating a completely new crack with fishermen. “The people who are in control want to ___17___ fishing as much as possible,” said Bob Jones, executive director of the Southeastern Fisheries Association. He added that the recent discoveries about red grouper amount to an “excuse they can use to restrict fishing, ___18___or recreational.”But to many researchers, fishery officials and even some fishermen, the fact that fish act as environmental engineers provides a compelling reason to protect them from exploitation.“If you ___19___ that fish, it puts into motion a whole chain of events,” said Don deMaria, who used to fish for red grouper near Key Largo, Fla., but no longer does. “There’s a whole lot of other animals that are ___20___. I’m not saying you can’t catch them. But you can’t do it to the extent we’ve been doing for the last 20 years.”III.

In this respect, new technologies have ___22___ our culture.The desire to be connected has brought solitude to a(n) ___23___ as we’ve known it.

From this point of view, technology has changed the culture of work. Being reachable might feel like a ___30___ to those who may not want to be able to be contacted at all times.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C andD. choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.ALooking back on the first twenty years of my life, I feel grateful to have been so healthy and happy. For my happiness, I am grateful to so many people and lucky events, but what have guided me and supported me in my life are my physical health, healthy finances, and my family’s happiness.Health comes first for me, because without health everything else is meaningless. Imagine starting a career without good health. Imagine starting a family without good health. Imagine achieving anything without good health. Clearly, good health is the first necessary for other part of one’s life.Good health is not enough to be happy. We still need to have money in today’s society. Money obviously pays for basic needs of life — food, housing, clothing — but it is also necessary for other reason like the quality of our education and medical care.Next comes the most important thing in having a happy life — our family. It provides the love, joy and support that everybody needs. I love my family with all my heart. I get pleasure from their pleasure. I suffer when they suffer. My family helped me get through the hard times of entrance exams. They comforted and advised me when I had misunderstanding with my friends. More importantly, they have been there to share in my successes in the past twenty years. In summary, all these are what I need and want in this world. As long as I stay healthy, earn enough money, and share both good times and bad times with my family, I will always be the happiest girl in the world.36. The writer mentions her entrance exams to prove that _______.A. opportunities go to those with strong beliefsB. our quality of life can be improved with moneyC. nothing can be achieved without a healthy bodyD. family provides the support that everybody needs37. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To argue about the importance of money.B. To explain what are the keys to happiness.C. To discuss ways of dealing with difficulties.D. To show people’s different attitudes to happiness.38. How is the passage organized?A. Introduction—Explanation—SummaryB. Examples—Argument—SummaryC. Argument—Topic—ConclusionD. Topic—Examples—ConclusionBEverywhere I look outside my home I see people busy on their high-tech devices, while driving, walking, shopping, even sitting in toilets. When connected electronically, they are away from physical reality.People have been influenced to become technology addicted. One survey reported that “addicted” was the word most commonly used by people to describe their relationship to iPad and similar devices. One study found that people had a harder time resisting the allure of social media than they did for sleep, cigarettes and alcohol.The main goal of technology companies is to get people to spend more money and time on their products, not to actually improve our quality of life. They have successfully created a cultural disease. Consumers willingly give up their freedom, money and time to catch up on the latest information, to keep pace with their peers or to appear modern.I see people trapped in a pathological(病态的) relationship with time-sucking technology, where they serve technology more than technology serves them. I call this technology servitude. I am referring to a loss of personal freedom and independence because of uncontrolled consumption of many kinds of devices that eat up time and money.What is a healthy use of technology devices? That is the vital question. Who is really in charge of my life? That is what people need to ask themselves if we are to have any chance of breaking up false beliefs about their use of technology. When we can live happily without using so much technology for a day or a week, then we can regain control and personal freedom, become the master of technology and discover what there is to enjoy in life free of technology. Mae West is famous for proclaiming the wisdom that “too much of a good thing is wonderful.” But it’s time todiscover that it does not work for technology.Richard Fernandez, an executive coach at Google acknowledged that “we can be swept away by our technologies.” To break the grand digital connection people must consider how life long ago could be fantastic without today’s overused technology.39. The underlined word “allure” in Paragraph 2 probably means ______.A. advantageB. attractionC. adaptionD. attempt40. From the passage, technology companies aim to ______.A. attract people to buy their productsB. provide the latest informationC. improve people’s quality of lifeD. deal with cultural diseases41. It can be inferred from this passage that people ______.A. consider too much technology wonderfulB. have realized the harm of high-tech devicesC. can regain freedom without high-tech devicesD. may enjoy life better without overusing technologySection C (8%)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Are Your Clothes Causing Pollution?Very small pieces of plastic, called microfibers, are polluting rivers and oceans.______42______ Clothes worn for outdoor activities and exercise are often made of artificial material, which is useful in keeping warm. But they contain very small plastic fibers, which may also be harming the environment when you wash them. When people wash these clothes, very small pieces go down the drain with the wash water.Studies on microfibers in the environmentPollution caused by plastic is not new, but recent studies have shown the effect of microfibers in the environment. Studies show very small microfibers are ending up in our waters, which may come from waste water treatment factories. A 2015 study found them in fish from California.Microfibers, effect on food suppliesBeyond the waterways, the researchers say microfibers may end up in soil and agriculturallands. _________43_________ This means there is much to be learned about microfibers and the environment. Some studies have shown that microfibers end up inside sea animals, like oysters._______44_______ Researchers say that the fibers tend not to move into the tissue of the fish, but it needs more study.Steps to save or keep microfibers from the environmentUntil more information becomes known, there are steps to take to reduce the amount of microfibers in the environment. People should use less of the artificial materials. If we already have those in our lives and we’re using them, an important step would be washing them less._______45_______ A bag is being designed in which to wash these clothes. It traps the microfibers in the bag and it may be available for purchase soon.A. New technology may a1so help.B. So if these m icrofiber s have been found in fish and seafood, ar e they safe to eat?C. They can al so move around the atmosphere.D. Studies are conducted on how much of the microfibers is releasedE. The source of these mi crofibers may surprise you: your clothes.F. Washing machines keep microfibers from escaping with w ash waterIV．Summary Writing (10%)46.Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Sales StrategiesHow can a company improve its sales? One of the keys to more effective selling is for a company to first decide on its “sales strategy”. In other words, what is the role of the salesperson? Is the salesperson’s job narrative, suggestive, or consultive?The “narrative” sales strategy depends on the salesperson moving quickly into a standard sales presentation. His or her pitch highlights the benefit for the customer of a particular product or service. This approach is most effective for customers whose buying motives are basically the same and is also well suited to companies who have a large number of prospects on which to call.The “suggestive” approach is tailored more for the individual customer. The salesperson must be in a position to offer alternative recommendations that meet a particular customer’s needs. Onekey aspect of the suggestive approach is the need for the salesperson to engage the buyer in some sort of discussion. The salesperson can then use the information from the customer to suggest an appropriate product or service.The final strategy demands that a company’s sales staff act as “consultants” for the buyer. In this role, the salesperson must acquire a great deal of information about the customer. They do this through market research, surveys, and face-to-face discussions. Using this information, the salesperson makes a detailed presentation tailored specifically to a consumer’s needs.More and more sales teams are switching from a narrative or a suggestive approach to a more consultative strategy. As a result, corporations are looking more at intangibles (无形资产) such as creativity and analytical skills and less at educational background and technical skills._____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________V.
